How might we...
- Governing Power: How might we shift governing power more towards justice?
- How can we give more power to folks who have been historically marginalized?
- How do we start living into democracy now at Washington CAN?
- How might I model what I want my team to be feeling and doing, finding their own liberation in this fight for liberating our communities?
Hypothesis
If I model love for myself then my team will want to emulate it.
Design
Show love for myself through actions
- Forward Stance and Tai Ji, 3x a week in morning.
- Practice brushing with 3-5 people from my team this month.
- In convo with other people around work life balance also own where I am in and invite them to support me.
- Fancy Facial
Metrics
Take note of reactions of staff.
Notice changes in myself and my leadership.
- Success:
- Feeling less guilt around these practices/actions
Learnings
- Realizing why I feel like an imposter at times or not the right person for this role is because I feel like I have to be everything for everyone. (eg. cheerleader, raise payroll, etc)
- I have a perspective worthy of sharing. My past struggles make me a stronger leader and allow me to offer my experience to staff struggling with similar issues.
- My body knows what I need, eg. shifted from doing tai ji to volleyball workout.
Decisions
Keep practicing on a fractal scale: self, team, members, organization, community, world.
Questions
How am I reinforcing and practicing that show self love and self care towards liberation?
